TIPS FOR SCORING ON MATCH REPORTS
Tally goals and behinds for each
quarter, write the score (as goals and behinds) in the total column and the
total points in the points column. At the end of the game, add across
the bottom line which should equal the total goals and behinds, and points
in the respective columns.
-
Could all managers/scorers please add up
the goals kicked by individual players (in the Total column).
-
Thank you to some wonderful, well
organized (and neat) managers whose match reports are exemplary!
-
Just a reminder to list players in
alphabetical order by surname.
-
PLEASE have them delivered to Sport & Rec
by no later than Sunday Afternoon!! (Friday/Saturday Match Results should be delivered back on Saturday Afternoon!!)
